AP Exams/College finals

[richter915]

You bitches ready...cause these muthafuckas will rape u and leave no survivors...

[apoemtothedead]

I have two of em coming up. Stat and Chem.

[aminorthreat55]

AP tests aren't that hard. College finals are harder. And if you fail, you've wasted a lot more than $70.

[richter915]

AP tests aren't that hard. College finals are harder. And if you fail, you've wasted a lot more than $70.
hmm...AP tests are hard in the sense that they put a year's worth of material on it opposed to just a semester...but you can also argue that that's what makes college finals harder...they're material is more concentrated plus there is more pressure ( cause of the money)...doing good on the APs is great though so I suggest all people taking APs to do it and do it well...cause of my AP credits I can take the minimum amount of credits senior year of college and those credits can be BS classes...

I have two of em coming up. Stat and Chem.
I always felt that stat was such a fucking waste cause it's worth less than AP calculus AB or BC...so why not just take that...I understand that ur school might not offer AP calc but my school did but people took stat as well as calc...idiots.

I opted to not take the chem for two reasons...it was senior year when I took it so I didn't wanna work hard thus I didn't know the material well...second...if I did do good, I'd have to take organic chem freshman year of college and that is just...not good. But because I took the AP course, I'm breezing through freshman chem...I haven't gotten any grade below a 91 in that class so far (including last semester).

if you want, I can IM you my practice tests for chem and that'll def. help you prepare for ur exam.

[apoemtothedead]

Well I'm taking Stat as a junior. I'll be taking BC next year.

[richter915]

Well I'm taking Stat as a junior. I'll be taking BC next year.
oh really?? I wish u the best of luck with that...I'm in calc II right now in college and again, if you want practice exams or anything...I'll be more than happy to hook you up...I guarantee it'll help you out...for chem I have notes and tests...anything u need, I'll help u out.

[sleepygrlgreen]

I'm taking the AP tests for Bio and English. As far as english goes, I'm not too worried about how i'll do, but with Bio, since I want to major in Biology, doing badly (less than a 4) would depress me greatly.

[LoserlyFirefly]

I'm taking the AP exam for US History. That's going to kill me.

[richter915]

[Broken4EverMore]

[richter915]

[blackandblueNFG]

calc II here, woo

[Morningstar1011]

I have AP Euro History. The FRQ's will kill me. I think I'll do well on the DBQ, we've been at them for the whole year.

Good luck everyone.

[Brianfarg]

No APs for me this year, but I have one next year and two college courses next year. I wish everyone the best of luck.

[Chemical Love]

my finals wont rape me, i'll rape them. hopefully.

[shut.the.door]

my AP calc exam was so hard I gave up and drew hand turkeys on the remaining pages to pass the time. I dominated AP US history and english to give me a nice head start on college credits.

[ArTkY_]

look, my AP is gonna fuck me up the ass once and then ask for oral. im taking world history, should be simple, right?

WRONG, my teacher has tought us absolutely nothing of what we need to know. OTHER TEACHERS TOLD ME HE DOESNT PREPARE YOU FOR THE EXAM! im scared :(

hold me.

[Web250]

AP's suck, plain and simple.
I'm taking Calc AB, Euro Hist, Art History, Spanish Lang.

Last year had 4's on Chem and APUSH

[YearsGoneBy]

ap us hist and ap eng language!!! yes!!

[Cal Smith]

Two things that are great............only having to take 8 hrs this past semester (history, eng., kin, kin) and only having to take two finals because you only had to take 8 hrs for graduation.

[richter915]

hold me.
I had the same exact problem when I took AP World History (I took it the first year it was offered)...what you have to do...sadly...is take shit into ur own hands...really just get a review book and go through it...that's ur best bet...I ended up getting a five on my AP so ya, I rock...I don't have my outlines on this PC but if I find em, just ask and I'll give.

[YearsGoneBy]

i took AP eng today....not too bad

[Morningstar1011]

i took AP eng today....not too bad

My friend took that today and said he laughed at how easy it was. Although he's in 1,000 AP classes and has an A in every one of them.

I'm debating on taking AP English next year. I'm afraid it's going to be too much with everything else.

well, i envy that friend....

...also, take AP, it is worth it

[angryandconfusd]

Im in AP bio, english, and US gov.....holy shit, i should be studying now

[Tristan Needler]

i took ap french, what a fucking joke, no way i got better then a one what a waste of time and 80 bucks.

hold me.

i have the AP world test this afternoon, in about an hour and 20 minutes. I did the entire class as an independent study, so I taught myself, and I should be studying right now, but I think my brain might explode.

I've got AP Euro Friday afternoon.

I took AP US, AP US Gov't and AP Comparative Gov't last year, and I got a 4, 5, 3 respectively.

Good luck to all my fellow World test takers. Discuss the test later?

[mirtizzle]

my high school didn't have too many ap options, so i only took ap comp and psych, and i made a 5 on comp and a 3 on psych. what was great about my ap comp test was that when i wrote papers for my teacher (who was satan, i believe) i never got more than a 3 on any of my papers and she actually advised me to not take the test because she didn't think i would pass it. when i got my score, i wanted to be like.. suck it, bitch.


i only had one final in my classes this semester, all the other ones i either had final papers or projects due

[angryandconfusd]

Is the US gov test easy?

[organizedchaos]

umm...us gov't is easy if you pay attention to current events. If you know what's basically going on in the world around you, it's cake.

I got a 5, I didn't study once and had a high A all semester.

My teacher was fantastic.

If you do take the US gov't test, take the Comp Gov't test too, because it's free, and it's not that bad. I decided to take ita few weeks before the test, bought a review book, read it the weekend before and got a 3.

By the way:

The AP World test wasn't that bad. It coulda been a lot worse.

[abbreviation]

I guess I'm the only one who took AP Human Geography?
Whatever.....it wasn't so bad.
I recommend all of you to take it. It's an easy credit.

[RoomWithAVeiw]

im taking my AP european history test friday. im kinda nervous about it. next year i have to take AP language and AP us history... not something im looking forward to...

[Morningstar1011]

well, i envy that friend....

...also, take AP, it is worth it

I envy him too, he's wicked smart and gives great help with my Chem problems. But, the spends his whole life studying.

I know it might be worth it but next year I'm going to have: French III, SAT Prep, Integrated Math, Physics Honours, English III honours, AP Psych, and AP US. I don't think I could handle AP English. Well, I could but my status of sanity would go way down.

[richter915]

good luck to all u bitches. AP classes are definitely the way to go...like cal said earlier...it gives u time to rest when u need it most. I mean, cause of my AP credits...I'm technically a junior once I finish my freshman year...wild eh? This will be useful when you have to take some sorta test (MCAT, GRE, LSAT, DAT, etc.) during junior or senior year. I know so many kids who are stuck taking summer classes and I dunno if you know but doing that shit looks HORRIBLE to grad schools...try in AP...you will definitely benefit...and if that's not enough to convince you...just consider how much money you (and/or your parents) will save cause of it.

[urowndisaster52]

I'm taking the AP exam for US History. That's going to kill me.
AP tests for Bio
i'm taking those too

[YearsGoneBy]

AP US hist wasnt that bad

[im_random]

AP US hist wasnt that bad

ha, all my friends said it sucked. but then again, our second year teacher is the shittiest teacher EVER and basically you do nothing in his class so they were screwed from the start.

[richter915]

ha, all my friends said it sucked. but then again, our second year teacher is the shittiest teacher EVER and basically you do nothing in his class so they were screwed from the start.
ya what's key in AP classes is the teacher...for the classes where I had great teachers...I got great scores without a lot of work. I still did good on my APs with bad teachers but I had to put in way too much effort to get it.

[angryandconfusd]

Anyone else taking bio monday?

[richter915]

Anyone else taking bio monday?
sleepygrlgreen is...GOOD LUCK!

[richter915]

so are you guys done with finals? comments? grades? how'd your classes end up?

[moongi91]

i have to take 4 ap tests this year
bio, physics, calc bc, and apel

any suggestions on studying?

[TheDemosRock]

AP World is coming up soon.
shouldn't be too bad though.

[irthesteve]

College finals suck. That's all i have to say here

[julia_bagulia]

Ugh I hate AP exams. I've got three to take (world, gov, and spanish) and all of my teachers are flipping the fuck out, which in turn makes me flip, which is stressful. But May/June are gonna be soooo chill.

[Yes. And?]

AP tests aren't that hard. I bombed the second semester of world history and got a 4 on the test.

[puhffft]

Yeah, I have three: environmental science, English, and government. Not too stressed, though. What happens happens. Just study hard, stay cool, and you'll be fine.

That, or you can do what I did last year. I started writing an essay, but ended up with a drawing of a highly detailed beach scene on one page and "NO" on the other page. Then made a maze around it.

Didn't do so well on that one. It was one of those doomed-from-the-start things.

[Coreyinne]

I've got AP Spanish and AP U.S. History this year. I'm pretty sure the spanish one is going to be one of the most painful tests of my life, with all the speakings and writings and fill ins and multiple choices, and just, it sounds insane and awful. History I think I'll be fine though. Last year I took AP world and had an awful teacher, so I got myself a review book and crammed for 2 straight weeks and got a 4. Only one other girl in my class passed with me. But with US, I have a good teacher, PLUS I'm gonna do the cramming thing again, so I'm pretty sure it'll be fine.

[richter915]

AP tests aren't that hard. I bombed the second semester of world history and got a 4 on the test.
for some reason, everyone seems to ace world history even though they're absolutely unprepared.

I remember when I was young, I took the very first AP world history exam

got a 5 too.

[selftitled85]

ap world history is a cakewalk compared to ap us history.


dbqs ftw!!!!!!


and i remember one of my college profs who was on the grading board telling me he even had trouble answering the problems when he would correct them. oy...

[puhffft]

you at gmu?
Nah, I'm a youngin. Still in high school. Well, dual enrolled at NOVA.

Eh, I'm half and half.

[selftitled85]

Nah, I'm a youngin. Still in high school. Well, dual enrolled at NOVA.

Eh, I'm half and half, .

haha ok i see. i go to gmu for grad school now so i thought id throw it out there.

there are way too many schools in this area haha.

[trypeace]

i didnt pass any of my AP exams in highschool....what a waste.
and college finals are not too difficult yet...but they will be when i start taking upper division courses.

[puhffft]

haha ok i see. i go to gmu for grad school now so i thought id throw it out there.

there are way too many schools in this area haha.
Hahaha, I know! It's ridiculous! They pop up like daisies, I swear.

[moongi91]

whats the pass rate for the ap phys mechanics test
im totally lost in that class but i need to pass the test
any advice?

[dtrzcin]

I am supposed to be studying for American National Government, but Absolutepunk sidetracks me. And there isn't even anything interesting.

[OnLettingGo]

I've got 2 AP tests this week. APUSH and AP English III (Language and Composition). Both should be fairly easy. If I don't make a 4 I'll just die. Next year is going to be a little more difficult. I'll be taking AP Physics B, AP Statistics, AP Calculus AB, AP Chemistry, AP Biology, and AP English IV (Literature and Composition)

Are you on block schedule or just fucking insane? Why would you take six APs in one year! Madness.

[Yes. And?]

look, my AP is gonna fuck me up the ass once and then ask for oral. im taking world history, should be simple, right?

WRONG, my teacher has tought us absolutely nothing of what we need to know. OTHER TEACHERS TOLD ME HE DOESNT PREPARE YOU FOR THE EXAM! im scared :(

hold me.
If it's any consolation, I learned nothing/did nothing in AP World last year and got a 4 on the test. Like that other dude said, a lot people seem to do fine without being very prepared.:shrug:

You'll probably be okay.

[kissy0560]

I'm taking AP English Lit and AP Macroeconomics. fuckk that shit

[lindZ629]

Monday (Today): Supply Chains
Tuesday: Tax
Wednesday: Marketing
Thursday: Financial Accounting

Supply Chains, Tax, and Marketing should be easy, but I'm pretty nervous for Accounting. I also hate studying, so this will be a fun week.

[MADSTA]

I'm currently studying for my IB Biology SL exam.
I know nothing.
It's worth 76% of my final mark.


Kill me now.

[Yes. And?]

Oh, I'm taking AP English Literature. Meh.

[blimpcityhero11]

I wish I would've taken more AP classes... I only took Calc and got a 5, so I can't complain too much.

[Villanova1L]

Law school exams are worse than college ever was.

The only AP exam I didn't pass was AP US History, which was taught by my good friends dad, who know laughs every time I see him.

I was lucky enough to pass all my others and get out of high school with 2 years of college done and save a ton of money, so that was sweet.

[stayforawhile]

I'm taking the AP exam for US History. That's going to kill me.
So am I my AP class is having a party on Friday right after the test ends and I don't plan on finishing drinking until way later that night I never want to learn about history ever again.

[iwasahero]

I think I did really well on the AP Government and Politics test on Monday.

Next year I'm taking AP Biology, AP Psychology, and AP Humanities.

[Broken Parachute]

Just took AP Lit and Comp today. It wasn't too bad. I used Lord of the Rings for the final literary essay. I'm glad the poems/passages weren't too boring either.

[Yes. And?]

wtf @ the first AP Lit essay question. Stupid poems. :-/

Other than that, I did okay.

[brentkid]

Had three papers due in the past three days. US History final on Saturday and US GOV and Politics on Monday.

History might be a little rough just because of how specific my professor's questions can be. I just need a B. Monday's exam isn't really a big deal for me. I've done all semester in that class so I'm just shooting for whatever I can get but I'm not going to bother stressing.

The papers were honestly more of a bitch because of the three consecutive days they were all due around.

[Paterson]

The AP U.S. History test for today was not hard at all. I think I got at least a 3 or 4.

[amysaurus]

Ohh I forgot about AP tests. Back in high school I took calculus, psychology, micro & macro econ, French, and stats. I wish I took English Lit though cause then I wouldn't be stuck in this stupid writing class in college right now.

[odizzle_word]

I've got 2 AP tests this week. APUSH and AP English III (Language and Composition). Both should be fairly easy. If I don't make a 4 I'll just die. Next year is going to be a little more difficult. I'll be taking AP Physics B, AP Statistics, AP Calculus AB, AP Chemistry, AP Biology, and AP English IV (Literature and Composition)

AP Chem and AP Bio in the same year does not sound like a good idea, especially considering the other 4 (?!) AP classes you're taking at the same time. Your workload's gonna be fucking insane.

[OnLettingGo]

AP Chem and AP Bio in the same year does not sound like a good idea, especially considering the other 4 (?!) AP classes you're taking at the same time. Your workload's gonna be fucking insane.

Yeah, I know. I'm not expecting it to be easy but a handful of my friends are taking them too so it'll definitely help having others to study with.

Are you on block schedule or just fucking insane? Why would you take six APs in one year! Madness.

We might be on block schedule next year so that might help. But we're not currently.

I would be taking 7 but I also have a Senior Project to do. 30 hours of community service and a 10 page essay, as well as an internship are all a part of it.

P.S. We so lucked out on that APUSH test.

[laxcrs]

Yeah, I know. I'm not expecting it to be easy but a handful of my friends are taking them too so it'll definitely help having others to study with.


ap calc and stat shouldnt be that bad, work your ass off in bio it will be huge when the credits transfer to college. (my school gives 10 credits for a 5 on bio) i wish i worked harder in high school haha

[xXHeyLushXx]

i just took my AP US test yesterday
there were some weird multiple choice questions

[jds10912]

took US Hist on friday, taking Chem on tuesday
the history went better than i expected it too, and chem shouldnt be too hard (its one of my best subjects)

[refgirl23]

Block Schedule is a help and a hindrance.
My senior year i taught myself AP Bio and AP Calc AB through online courses year round with AP Chem on the block system year round, and AP English on a semester. My best test scores all came out of my year round classes. Though on a side note, I definitely didn't study and didn't answer 15 questions on the AP Chem exam and got a 4, so obviously that exam isn't that big of a deal.

My finals weren't bad except for my O. Chem final which was 50 freaking percent of my grade.

[Kassie09]

Holy shit APUSH and ap bio tests.
I'm feeling bad about the results. I am pretty stupid those tests made me realize.

[xfantabulousx]

i have three coming up this week: AP psych, english lang/comp, and world history. they're on tuesday, wednesday, and thursday, which sucks. on the other hand, i don't have to take final exams in those classes in june because i'm taking the AP tests. that, and i only have to go to school for the time of the exams, so i basically only go to 2 days of school this week.

but after the APs, i have to worry about advanced subsidiaries. oh, and if anyone knows what AS level tests are, could you tell me if they sell review books? and if they sell them in the US?

[OnLettingGo]

Hey, do any of you know if you actually have to take the AP class that year to take the test or if you can sign up to take one even if you took the course the year before?
I took World History but they didn't let us take the AP exam. But this year they changed it and the sophomores get to take it.

[jds10912]

your school might require you to take the course, but the AP exams dont have any prerequisite. talk to your guidance counselor, they'll probably let you take it
if they do require you to take the course, you could just try and take some at a different school

[hellogorgeous]

let's just say this semester wasn't a very focused one.

[trustworthy]

ive got two down and three to go. the only one i'm truly worried about is music theory tomorrow. i understand music theory just fine, but you can't teach somebody how to do the listening and while i'm not horrible at it, i'm still not that great at it. i think that's most of the exam, too. poop.

[puhffft]

poop.
I feel your pain, but I'll admit... that made me laugh :)

[Ailite]

I had my APUSH exam on Friday. Multiple choice was easy, I made the DBQ my bitch, did alright on the first essay and awful on the second.

[TheDemosRock]

Studying my face off for music theory and World.
Everyone keeps saying that world is a walk in the park, so it's getting me less nervous. I've got four practice tests to take now... one each day 'til thursday lol

[speedy017]

I have finals in Applied Stochastic Processes, Continuous Probability and Statistics, Economics of Health Care, And Economics of Development finished on the 15 of may cannot wait

[puhffft]

I was a little nervous, but I took my practice test for APES and I did pretty well. But you know, it's whatever. Don't stress. Just study and do the best you can. The world won't end if you score a 3 instead of a 4 :)

[trustworthy]

good lord, theory was NOT good. our CD kept skipping in the middle of the examples and the guidance counselors running it didn't seem to understand that we kind of need to hear the WHOLE example to answer the questions. sight singing wasn't too bad and neither were the melodic or harmonic dictations...but the multiple choice was pretty beastly. oh well, it's over.

i think chemistry tomorrow will be sweet, though.

[Yes. And?]

Who's gotten their scores back yet? I got a 4 on the AP English Literature. Hehe, I didn't even read a book the whole school year. Study? Pssssh.

[ides of march]

i got a 5 on calc AB, booyashaka

[Yes. And?]

i got a 5 on calc AB, booyashaka
And you're only 15? Nice.

[mattybobviously]

Got a 5 on World History, but I'd figured that I had. Not bad for never doing homework all year, haha.

[stayforawhile]

4 on APUSH. Did nothing all year, it's hanging on my fridge. Enough to get college credit that's all I care about.

[¡vivalasanti!]

haha 1 on ap euro. may have something to do with the fact that i cheated on every test.

[jds10912]

5 on chem, 4 on US History
not bad :)

[Nerdy91]

5 on chem, 4 on US History
not bad :)
help me i got a 2 on us history i felt like such a dumbass:hitself:

[Yes. And?]

haha 1 on ap euro. may have something to do with the fact that i cheated on every test.
Ouch.

[puhffft]

4 on AP Environmental Science. Not too bad. I'm happy with it :)

[¡vivalasanti!]

Ouch.

doesn't matter. it's not a class i'll ever need the credit for. i just took it (as a sophomore) to up my gpa. and it worked. i made a 95 in the class lol.

[slenygoodbi]

So i was looking for a place to brag about my shitty AP scores ^.^

Junior year in high school:

AP Chem = 1
AP Cal BC = 1
AP Cal AB = 2
AP Eng Lang = 3

How's that ftw? Egh contradictory to a previous thread of how only smart kids come to this thread >.< ^.^
Yeah, anyone up for laughs at my score =P give it to me ^.^

AP's are a joke, and i didn't take the classes for the credit rather for the knowledge and not have to work TOOOO hard freshman year of college ^.^

Should've cancelled my scores huh? Good thing i'm not sending em in and im aiming toward a public state university =]]

[clichedtragedyy]

I am shocked at myself for passing English Language, barely scraping by with a 3 haha. I'm much more proud of my 5 in Calc BC and Psych. And getting a free AB subscore? Even better.

Ahhhhh, I am such a little geek for actually caring and bragging about these things. :)

[AlternaPrincess]

I got 5s on both APUSH and English Language. I was shocked with the English grade...I fucking hated that class. I'm taking AP Chem and English Lit this year. I've heard the Chem exam is a bitch. Truth?

[smorez]

4 on world history

usually fell asleep in that class too

[Mikey Spa]

4 on my Calc AB. I'll take it. I don't feel the exam properly tests the students though. But that's another story. If I didnt make a dumb mistake I would have gotten a 5 :-/... SIGH
